Column Order

The order or sequence that the
columns appear on a printed report can be changed.
Perhaps, for example, in your congregation the brothers are
accustomed to viewing the Attendant details on the schedule in the
first column instead of the Sound column as is currently set as
default by Meeting Schedule Assistant. Using this feature
you can have the Attendant column appear first (after the Date
column) and the Sound column show next if that is your
preference.

To use this feature click on the Columns button
(found on the Export Settings
dialogue) and you will see a popup window similar to this:

(The list of columns shown in the window
will depend on the columns requested
in the Options section for the particular schedule
type loaded.)

Select the column title you would like to shift (mouse click or
use your keyboard up/down arrows), and then click on the
Adjust column order spin arrows to alter the order
in which the column appears, relative to the others. The position
of the Date column cannot be changed.

You can also use this window to tell Meeting Schedule
Assistant if there are any columns that you don't want printed
or exported. A scenario where this feature might be useful is when
you allocate extra assignments (for example Congregation Bible
Study) so that you can avoid conflicts of assignment. But on the
final schedule you don't want those assignments printed because
they are going to be presented on a Our Christian Life and
Ministry meeting schedule.

After you have set the correct order and visibility click on the
OK button. Your preferences will be immediately
shown in the Print Preview box area. You must
click OK on the Export Settings
window for your adjustments to be remembered!

Note: Only the Print Preview ,
not the Report dialogue box, will display the adjusted order of
columns. Any saved reports (SRR's) when re-opened will show the
column order preference made when the report was created. Each
Schedule Type (see
Options ) will also store the sequence of columns
as set by the user.
